Let’s clarify what decentralized clinical trials are before this bubble bursts! In this episode, Hassan Kadhim, global head of clinical trial business capabilities at Bristol-Myers Squibb, takes a very sober look at decentralized clinical trials: what they mean to him, how they are evolving, and why they are here to stay. To incentivize progress around DCTs, Bristol-Myers Squibb came up with a definition for the term “decentralized clinical trial” that enlists four traditional capabilities and four up-and-coming ones, all of which Hassan explains. He discusses the design and coordination for the implementation of DCTs to collect the necessary patient data in a comfortable burdenless manner. Not all countries, organizations, or sites are ready to implement DCTs; Hassan thinks ever since COVID, the industry has changed in that way.
